15 The Reunion First Half

------------------

The Centermost of The Great forest of nowhere - The Black Merchant tree house

------------------

The top naked firm build boy in 16-17 is smithing the red-hot sword in the blacksmith behind the tree house. He uses all of his skill and spirit ki to smith all of his equipment, preparing to go out from one and a half years of hiding.

This double edge longsword is the best masterpiece from all of his work. It can cut even space if the user has cultivation high enough. This work he commits his all to the person he wants to meet the most. Xiao Lan.

This is the last temper before he uses all of his spirit qi and spirit sens to refine it to finish his work with the inscribing of character. "Bai Lan" [White Orchid]

"Huuuuu" He exhales with exhaustion before resting at the table that has a mini Shoggoth preparing it for him.

He drinks the tea, looks at the entrance of the tree house area and checking the time.

He then decides to wait for three more days before departure.

"Aaaah you're still here!" The charismatic and deep voice of a man direct at him from the sky.

Zhu Wushang looks up and sees The Black merchant flew down to him.

"I'm impressed; I thought you'd be late for 2 or 3 days." Zhu Wushang praises the professional ethics of The Black Merchant.

"Hey, Kid I'm a merchant remember? A good merchant never late. If I'm late, that's mean I'm not going to come in the first place. Easy and simple."

Zhu Wushang smile then throws a storage ring to The Black merchant.

"Here, all of the herb of the first batch. It's yours."

In this one and a half year, he had learned a spirit gathering formation that helps in accelerating the growth of Spirits herb, and he also invents a spirits fertilizer to further accelerate its growth. So he can keep his end of a bargain and also get some benefit from it.

The Black merchant uses his spirits qi to sense the content in the storage ring then smile a little. He never thought that Zu Wushang would really find a way to get the deal don't within one and a half year.

"Thanks, kid" He then pat Zhu Wushang shoulder in a friendly manner.

"Since you are back, I'll go now, thank you for your shelter. We'll meet again someday." Zhu Wushang then walks back to the tree house to pack his thing.

"Oh? Don't you want to know where the second page of Supreme Cosmic Scripture is?"

Zhu Wushang stops in place and turns back to look at The Black merchant.

"What's the price?" He immediately asks.

The black merchant looks at Zhu Wushang with deep thought. It looks like he's deciding on something.

"Can you promise me that if one day you have power great enough to force me. You'll not use it to force me to do something I don't want to."

"If you have a malicious thought to harm me or my loved one and you don't want to stop does this still counts?" He asked.

"No, don't worry I know your bottom line."

Zhu Wushang thinks about it for a while; He has a complicated impression of this Black Merchant. He doesn't know how he should feel with this guy. Is he a friend?, A good business partner?, Or a foe that's trying to deceive him. But he didn't detect or sense any malicious or a deceiving intent from the Black Merchant right now.

"If you're not getting in my way and don't cross my bottom line then. OK, I promise you."

When Zhu Wushang words end, like a magical spell or some kind of decree from the almighty God, Some invisible chain within him has broken.

"Thank you, Then, go to The Bountiful Harvest Kingdom. And find Liu clan, From the latest information I knew. It's with them."

"When is your latest information?" Zhu Wushang ask

"About half a years" The Black merchant answer.

Zhu Wushang looks seriously at The Black merchant before nodding.

"Got it! Thank you" He then flew up to the tree house to pack his thing.

About 30 minutes passed, Zhu Wushang came out wearing a white-blue robe with a scholar hat while gently fanning himself with a white feather fan like a harmless but respectable scholar.

"Then, We'll meet again if fate permit" He then flies through the air and disappears to the horizon.

The Black Merchant is looking at the direction which Zhu Wushang had disappeared then, he mutters.

"Fate is always in your hand. You just don't know it."

Desolate continent - Outside of Zhu Manor

------------------

Zhu Wushang flew down from the sky and saw the Zhu Manor that has been repaired. This made him a little startled because he expected a dilapidated state of Zhu Manor. Because after he died his parent should return to the capital. He doesn't know where Xiao Lan is, but he speculated that she might follow his parent and work at the Great Phoenix Empire Capital.

He is strolling inside the manor and see that every nook and cranny of the manor are clean. He felt curious and walk from the outer courtyard to the inner courtyard. What he sees is that the fatty is sweeping the floor of the inner courtyard.

Fatty felt the presence of someone; he then immediately turns to look at Zhu Wushang. His eye opens wide with disbelief but quickly turn to fear.

"Awwww waaaaaaaaaaaaaaa Young master!! Please don't bring me to live with you! I had an old mother to take care and three cats to…" In a panic, Fatty threw his broom at Zhu Wushang which he can easily dodge.

"Fatty, Last time I check, I still have my shadow and my leg, and this is nearly at noon. Also, You don't have a mother. You are an orphan working for a small pickpocketed gang on the street. My father caught you red-handed and brings you here as a punishment and offer work for you. Do you remember?"

Zhu Wushang recites all of fatty life for him to listen in the hope that fatty realize that he's is not a ghost.

Fatty slowly looks at Zhu Wushang and slowly change his eye view to look at Zhu Wushang shadow.

"You have a shadow! And a pair of leg!! Young master!! you're alive you're not dead!!" Fatty shout in excitement. With the loud cry of fatty, Two young servants that resting inside the servant courtyard quickly rush out to the inner courtyard and see Zhu Wushang.

"Y… Young masterr---------- nooooooooo don't bring us to the underworld!!!"

Zhu Wushang starts getting annoyed, but he quickly suppresses it and calms all the servant down, before telling everything about him to all the servant.

One of the servants asks immediately.

"T... Then... Young master, does this means you have battle power equal to the peak of Spirits Ascension realm.?"

"Yes." Zhu Wushang nod.

All the servant exclaim ohhhh in surprise, excitement and proud that they have an all-powerful Young master.

He looks at fatty and nod inward. This fatty is the only old servant that still serve Zhu Manor after the incident. While all other servant is fled or resign from Zhu manor, this matter alone makes him appreciate fatty so much.

"Fatty, after you finish with your work, come meet me at the main study room."

------------------

Zhu Manor - Study room

------------------

Hong Paopao This name is not so familiar within the Zhu manor, but if speaking about fatty everyone will know who he is immediate. Actually, his real name and the nickname given by others didn't differ that much, Hong means Great, and Pao means bubble or swollen. So call him fatty seems not much different. But… He feels like he has another name that's not Paopao, but he can't remember what it is, Back then he's too young to remember everything feels fuzzy.

Right now he's pretty nervous about meeting this young master of his when he has power.

To be honest, he feels that this young master of his is very pitiful; he has a heaven-defying comprehension but has a handicapped body of not having spirits root. That's why he didn't feel nervous around the former young master of his and try to get close to him to cheer him up. Although he overdid it sometimes and made his young master lose his temper instead. But all in all nothing serious had happened.

But now he doesn't know how to feel, Because he had heard that most people would change when they got some power. And now his young master has battle power equal to the peak of Ascension realm. He doesn't know if that would apply to his young master too.
